A second primary school teacher has been banned from the classroom over a vile WhatsApp chat where sexist and homophobic messages about female staff were swapped with male colleagues.
Curtis Austin, 35, was part of a ‘barbaric’ group chat at Engayne Primary School in Upminster, east London, in which he cracked racist jokes, branded pupils ‘annoying’, and ‘retarded’ and called a female colleague ‘f*** buddy material’.
Austin s£xually objectified female workers with lecherous messages in sordid WhatsApp conversations with other male teachers – in a scandal that has already seen one teacher being banned from the profession and a third quitting his job.
The slew of obscenely offensive texts was exposed after police seized Austin’s phone and referred the matter to the local council.
In the chat between the disgraced educators, female staff were degraded and branded as ‘kinky sluts’ and ‘pure filth’, the Teaching Regulation Authority (TRA) said.
Austin sent messages describing one female colleague as ‘f*** buddy material’. In another text he said one had a ‘cracking a** too’, while in a third he wrote about one woman, saying: ‘That rack alone makes her top 2 material.’
In another abhorrent s£x-fuelled exchange about a female worker at the school, Austin said he would ‘pound the s*** out of her’ and ‘put her in a wheelchair’.
And in a series of homophobic jibes, Austin – who previously delivered lessons about ‘cyber bullying’ and ‘text bullying’ to nine and 10-year-old Year 5 pupils – labelled a female colleague a ‘carpet munching s***’ and a ‘skin head carpet muncher’.
Austin would refer to female staff members as ‘c****’ and being on the ‘c*** list’,’ the TRA said, while other posts discussed what they thought might be colleagues’ preferred s£xual positions, with Austin lecherously describing one female, saying: ‘She’d 100% be the dirtiest shag’.
